TaxExemption Subobject

Describes an Account-specific tax exemption.

An Account may have several Tax Exemptions. If the country specified in the TaxRegion data member of the TaxExemption object matches the country in which a Transaction occurs, the Transaction is exempted, and no tax is applied. This exemption will override any otherwise applicable taxes for the Transaction. The TaxExemption Object Data Members appear in the table below.
